With no warning, I went from being Ryan's Mommy to "MOM!" I'm not ready to be MOM! yet. In my mind I am still his Mommy and want to be for many more years to come. I don't know how or why, but he no longer calls me Mommy. "Hey MOM! What are ya doing?" "Is that a red light MOM!?" An exclamation point after each MOM! on purpose because truly, that's how he says it. With such enthusiasm and importance. His questions (seemingly unending) are urgent in nature and how dare I ignore the question - it just means 10 more behind it, with more and more urgency in the words!
I hope I go back to being Mommy - it's endearing and I embrace it.
If it's to be MOM! from here on out, so be it.
I'll learn to embrace that too. :-)
